hi all.. just joined and wondering and hoping someone can help...i have just bought a 2006 gs moon 260 cc and it didn't start when i bought it,,,i have since managed to get it running and after a while of idling it started to leak around the crankshaft..i ordered a new seal and while waiting for it to arrive i removed the cover and variator thing and saw the seal so removed it quite easily so not sure if the guy had used sealant or not,but low and behold inside was the old seal which i presume he could not get out and it has gone over the lip and up against the chain sprocket..it's quite chewed up so presume he had a go at it an couldn't remove it so i have tried a lot and the same for me...was wondering if it will harm anything if i leave it in there or do i have to strip the engine down to get it out..i have tried all sorts of bent wire and hooks and just about everything...cheers tofty tried to attach a photo but keeps aying error...
